Dave Douglas's second release with his electronic group High Risk is true to form of the trumpeter's modus operandi to avoid repeating the same thing twice. The ever-inventive Douglas ruminates and toasts with a brittle tone and moody mute and even with the return of the High Risk crew he vibe this time is totally different, proving the group's music diversity.Douglas and his High Risk quartet are doing what jazz musicians do best: taking the sounds and influences around them, personalizing them, adapting them and moulding them into an expressive language.Dark Territory is a terrific album; dark, moody, virtuosic … serene and meditative electric jazz with a focus on ambient sounds.
